Guild Wars

A few minutes ago…

Sunna pushed away the crocodile-headed fellow who was her squad leader coldly, not even sparing him a second glance. Rather than join the rabble in the endless chase, she waited behind for the upper echelon to be alerted so she could provide the necessary information.

With a cold smile, Sunna clenched her fists as she knew that this would be the turning point in her fate within Monster City, and she could finally leapfrog from where to exact revenge on that wretched bitch, Riveting Night.

"You slut, how dare you?!" Gardon, the cleanup squad leader that Sunna had fortuitously been added to, roared after he came to his senses from the whole affair.

He felt a surge of fear and hatred in his heart as he quickly put two and two together, comprehending the scheme Sunna was playing at. Given how hateful and vengeful this woman was compared to how much he had humiliated her these past few days, if her status were to soar, he would be finished!

Immediately, he struck out with a cruel blow, aiming to seize Sunna. It didn’t matter what clever scheme she had; once he controlled her, he could take the credit for her information and be the one who would receive the meat while she would only get the soup!

Thinking this, Gardon was filled with excitement, for he could finally advance his law that was stuck at the Master Realm further if he were to obtain some good merits this time!

Sunna saw his attack but didn’t move, her rosy red lips curling into a sneer of derision, as if looking at a fool. Gardon felt dismayed and infuriated by this look, wondering where she got her confidence from, for she was a mere Intermediate Law True God.

However, his attack was not something that could be pulled back at the last second, so he cruelly went through with it. Gardon’s face changed greatly when a wave of powerful Divine Law swept over the area, confining everyone to their spots.

Seven beings suddenly appeared in the ruined bar, each of them Supreme Law True Gods that overlooked the entire city from the fortresses above, also the direct aides or right-hand men of the Semi-Origin Gods who manned the fortresses.

In the lead was a Satyr that glanced at the remaining area coldly, pinning all the True Gods in the spot due to the pressure in his purple eyes. The fellow was not very handsome and wore a set of resplendent armor on his upper body—which was human—and his lower body—which was that of a goat—only had some special pads for the knees and the ankles.

Many in the bar recognized him, for this was Ramson the Cruel!

He was the City Lord of Monster City and the direct sibling to one of the strongest Semi-Origin Gods in their pantheon. He got his title precisely through his heartless and brutal methods that caused the hearts of all beings to feel cold, and due to his backing, no one could depose him.

"Who is the one who reported the traitors?" Ramson asked in a voice that sounded like a goat bleating.

Sunna bravely stepped forward and bowed respectfully. "My lord, it was me. My name is Sunna, and I recognized two Supreme Law True Gods who were hiding within this lounge as beings affiliated with an enemy force!"

Seeing that she actually had the guts to step forward, the ones who came with Ramson raised their eyebrows in surprise. Even they, who worked with him and had slightly similar statuses, were often pressured by his presence, and yet this little Intermediate Law True God could step forward?

Ramson’s eyes fell on Sunna and briefly noticed her large ’headlights,’ which were slightly visible through her robe due to her bowed posture. Ramson’s eyes flickered with interest because he realized that this woman had a strong will, and with the right nurturing, could become a capable power.

"And? Share the details immediately. Know that if you lie or omit anything, you will be punished severely," Ramson stated coldly, his eyes resting on Sunna’s face.

Sunna rose and nodded before recounting everything about Umbra and Draco, especially their growth, their various gains, their claiming of the territory on the main plane, and their expansion to the Divine Realm. She even highlighted their collaboration with the Supreme Pantheon, which caused the faces of all those here to change.

The name of the Supreme Pantheon was next to taboo here because those were their sworn enemies. The amount of fighting and wars that had occurred between the two pantheons had covered the entire realm from top to bottom before the grey rot came.

The eyes of Ramson flickered. "If this is true, you will be rewarded heavily for providing this information. Wait here while we assess the veracity. If you leave this spot, not only will you not gain any rewards, but you will also be marked as a traitor."

Sunna nodded obediently and stood to the side while Ramson cast one more cursory glance around the room. His eyes then fell on the frozen Gardon, who was trying to make his presence smaller, but his ungainly size made that impossible.

Seeing Ramson focus on him, Gardon’s heart began to pound in his chest as fear surged throughout his body. He tried to open his mouth to beg, but he could barely remain breathing in this pinned state.

Ramson snapped his fingers, and Gardon flew over to them, with one of the other Supreme Law True Gods holding onto him as the group turned around to leave. As for the fate of the crocodile-headed fellow, one did not need to think far to know that it would be beyond miserable.

Sunna smiled at this, feeling her entire body sublimate. This was it, the start of her meteoric rise! After this, not only would she be able to catch up and surpass that wretched Riveting Night, but she would also be able to exact her revenge!

"Huh?"

Suddenly, she, along with those in the club who had not yet left, noticed a huge pillar of light that soared up to the sky. The pillar was magnificent and resplendent, seemingly able to convey the emotions of benevolence and justice, like a beacon that assured all sapient beings that their fates would be protected by it.

However, while the others were enthralled, Sunna’s face was filled with a mixture of hatred and horror, causing her expression to warp in a twisted way that marred her beauty. She understood what this light pillar represented because it was the famous method in which her hated foe used to clear the field of the trash!

"RIVETING NIGHT!!!" Sunna screeched with madness, her eyes becoming bloodshot as her sanity sank to the bottom.

As a dignified true goddess who everyone looked up to, only she knew the humiliation and suffering she had borne in these past few years, all because of that wretched bitch daring to cross her!

She had managed to suppress her hatred, humiliation, and pain to present a strong face, but now that the bitch was finally near, Sunna could no longer restrain it. She wanted nothing more than to rip her to shreds and watch her be defiled by every pig and dog on the street!

The lake of light pooled in the sky, expanding outward as all eyes lay upon it, the nearby Ramson and his crew not having yet left the area. However, their faces changed slightly when they saw one of their own people in the fortress above try to disperse the lake, to no avail.

It was then that they realized that this mechanism might not be exactly in their favor, and countermeasures needed to be taken!

But it was too late! The light beams fell, and carnage ensued.

"Block it!!" Ramson roared as he manifested his Supreme Law to try and counter the light beams but was shocked when the first one struck.

This power… it was far stronger than his own, but due to it being dispersed instead of concentrated, he could barely manage to form a barrier. Many of the other True Gods around him were easily pierced and killed, including the crocodile-headed fellow he held in his grasp.

Ramson paled and turned his head to check if the informant true goddess was still alive, only to see that the light beams purposely avoided her. Even those who stood not more than a few meters away were turned into sieves by the light beams, their flesh charred beyond measure, yet she was like a pristine island amidst a storm, untouched by the cruelty going on around her.

In this instant, Ramson seemed to understand everything.

"Traitorous bitch!!" he bellowed as he pointed at Sunna with hatred, making the True Goddess in question spit venomously.

"Idiot! I told you that I and that wretched mortal have hatred for each other; it is obviously natural for her to leave me alone so she can deal with me personally," Sunna explained, not pressured at all by Ramson’s hatred nor Eva’s behavior.

"What she doesn’t know is the gap in accumulation. It was fine for her to hide in the main plane and be a pest, but she dares to come to the Divine Realm and actually search me out? Just relying on that origin bloodline and some petty tricks?" Sunna sneered as her eyes narrowed with malice.

First of all, knowing precisely about Eva’s talents, her allies, and her methods, why would a mere Intermediate True Goddess like her dare to still mention revenge when talking about Eva, rather than hide away? Why would she dare out Qiong Qi and Clarent to force Eva to come here if she was far weaker?

Sunna was looking forward to Eva’s arrival. She stood there with her arms crossed underneath her ample bosom, watching everyone die around her with a cruel smile, ignoring the curses from Ramson and the others who were steadily overwhelmed to death.

She watched the powerful flying fortresses come down one after the other in huge explosions, the light from them illuminating her twisted expression while the smoke and shockwave blew past her as she made a barrier of Solar Energy in front of her.

She smiled slightly upon seeing this outcome, for it was within this very fortress that she had been repeatedly humiliated and sullied, dreaming many times of them crashing and burning with their occupants still within.

Well, even though it was her most hated enemy who achieved this feat, it was still alright for Sunna because she didn’t care who did it as long as it was achieved.

However, unbeknownst to her, the light beam had come to an end while the fortresses still crashed, and in a fold of space near her, the Morningstar Clan was looking at her with varying expressions.

Draco was surprised because he never expected Sunna to be this high quality in terms of looks, but then again, sun goddesses usually were top-notch judging by Amaterasu and Eva herself. Meanwhile, Shuangtian was sizing Sunna up with a strange expression, wondering why this woman dared to provoke Eva.

Qiong Qi and Clarent were hopping with fury, their eyebrows drawn into inclined lines as their eyes became red.

"There she is, Madam Eva; she is the one who bullied us!" The two cried out, akin to whiny young masters after being beaten, seeking reinforcements from the ’big ones’ in the clan.

Eva only glanced at Sunna and felt a deluge of memories flash by. The various assaults, bullying, and harassment she had suffered from Sunna, who was one of her masters under the herald system, made her feel the time that had passed more acutely than anything else.

To think that she, Eva, even in her Riveting Night state of mind at the time, felt gratitude toward Sunna and planned to repay her when she became stronger, much like Draco and Richmond of the now.

And yet Sunna, with her own two hands, tore that all apart just because Eva showed hints of manifesting a Sun-related divinity back then.

The bitter irony was that even though it was normal for True Gods to suppress those who wanted to usurp them, firstly player laws do not affect NPC laws, and secondly, even if it did, the Solar-related Divinity Eva showed at the time was different from Sunna and would have complemented her rather than replaced her.

When Sunna realized, she had already made the grave offense, so it couldn’t be taken back. This was why Flashflame often laughed at her back then, because it was too ironic.
